Two figures bear this name. Zacharias the priest was the father of John the Baptist, struck mute when he doubted Gabriel's promise of a son in his old age. Another Zechariah was the son of Jehoiada, who was martyred within the temple courtyard for rebuking Israel's apostasy. Both represent godly faithfulness in their generations.
